HornsUp Posted October 14, 2009 Share Posted October 14, 2009 what's the difference between spats and leggings? Leggings are wrapped, like an Ace bandage. Now check out "puttees". We now return you to our regular topic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gsksun4 Posted October 14, 2009 Share Posted October 14, 2009 (edited) Leggings are wrapped, like an Ace bandage. Now check out "puttees".We now return you to our regular topic. Puttee's are much like leggings. Both utilize string and I believe little hooks and leggings go from the ankle, half way up the calf. No, we aren't introducing farm animals into this discussion. The Navy used leggings to tighten the bell bottoms around the leg while on ship. The bell bottoms were introduced in the navy as a potential floatation device, should you have to abandon ship. The bells would catch the air and would be secured with the laces from the leggings. However, performing this exercise under extreme conditions didn't alway work out. Puttee's go from the ankle, up to the knee. Spats are wrapped from the instep, up over the ankle. Farm animals wear none of the above, unless you have a twisted farmer.
